I take chats for customer service. We're expected to help two people at the same time. This is me when two people who work from home lost internet at the same time so they're in crisis and as ending message after message and won't follow directions because they're desperately trying anything to get back online because they could get fired.

The cynic in me is like "this is karma for the previous 3 times you told your boss the internet was down when it wasn't."

I just looked, the app I used to use for a Nextel replacement still exists, it's called Voxer. Cannot speak to it's quality anymore but I did use it a lot back in the day.

You useful idiots are going to be among the first against the wall to find out about China's mercy I imagine. You'll demand to fellate the firing squad beforehand.

I mean, it was an egregious show of force but I'd hardly put it anywhere near the top.

Smooth-brained western Chinese apologists is not what I was expecting from the future of the internet even 5 years ago. Our atrocities are totally cool, eh? Nice.

Eh I'll never live to see it, I'm worried it's gonna be 120° F where I live when I'm in my 60's...

These fucking cameras and all like them are the bane of my existence. I'm an ISP repair rep. People lose their fucking shit if they can't surveil their fucking house for 5 minutes. "The Internet is down! Reboot it!" "Are you at home too troubleshoot?" "No! But I can't see my fucking cat vomiting on my couch from work!!!" Jesus fucking Christ, your house will be there when you get home. Fuck

Have a bunch of them made alts on Lemmy .ml? I feel like this comment section ripe with bears that are on .ml. I suppose being able to make alts is one of the advantages of being decentralized.
